Rare, Original, Vintage 1950's Yonezawa American Airlines Multi-Action DC7 Tin Litho Battery Operated Toy Plane with Original Box. Made in Japan. This is by far one of the finest toy airplanes ever produced due to its large, impressive size, outstanding detailed lithography and multiple realistic actions. This toy is original, complete with jetway stairs and in near mint condition with bright, clean, glossy litho. The battery compartment is clean and free of rust and corrosion. It works great and when turned on, the two inboard engines start, then the two outboard engines start, the plane taxis forward, stops and the rear door opens as a flight attendant moves into the doorway. While this action is happening, the passengers in the windows move toward the rear door. The door then closes and the actions repeat. During the entire operation there is a flashing red light on top of the fuselage. Features all tin construction with the exception of the plastic propellers and rubber wheels. Has outstanding, detailed, realistic lithography with American Airlines advertising and multiple, complex actions. The Yonezawa Toy trademark and Made in Japan are printed on the bottom of the plane. Measures an impressive 21" long with a wing span of 23.5". The illustrated box is original, complete including protective inserts and in good condition with glue repairs and the box lid taped on from the inside. The box lid features a paper label with an illustration of the actual toy and displays nice with the toy. This will make a fantastic rare addition to your collection!
